PENNY ARCADE'S ON THE RAIN-SLICK PRECIPICE OF DARKNESS 2 ARTICLES

March 26, 2010 - Penny Arcade, one of the most well-known videogame webcomics around, surprised readers a few years ago when creators Jerry Holkins and Mike Krahulik revealed that a four-part videogames series was in the works based on the Penny Arcade universe. After Episode 1 and Episode 2 were launched, Episode 3 was nowhere to be found.

November 3, 2008 - At the end of each month, the IGN Xbox team likes to toss every recently released game on the floor, put on blindfolds, and take a ball-peen hammer to the small pile of games we've reviewed. Whichever game has the guts to stay in one piece wins the Game of the Month honors. Shoddy craftsmanship is not tolerated around these parts.

October 29, 2008 - Six months ago, Penny Arcade crossed over from a site that poked fun of videogame culture to one that now helps create games. The first Penny Arcade XBLA title was promised as part of a continuing series. The promise is being delivered. Six months is a perfect gap between episodes.

October 1, 2008 - Penny Arcade Adventures: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness Episode 2 has reached gold master status for its PC, Mac and Linux versions and is nearing closer to release both on those platforms and on consoles, developer Hothead Games announced today.

August 29, 2008 - Much to my own surprise, I liked Penny Arcade: On the Rain-Slick Precipice of Darkness - Episode One. I'm not a big ready of the Penny Arcade web comic -- not for political or personal reasons, there's only so much videogame ranting I can handle in my life. Still, I found PA:OTRSPOD - E1 funny and enjoyable, though with a few flaws. Episode Two, slated for release this winter on XBLA, PC and PSN, addresses several of these concerns and looks to be a stronger offering.
